Animated VDB Cloud Formations

Note: I worked with these vdb-files in Blender but you can import these at any other 3d software that allows to work with vdb's. The files are in the vdb-folder.

Realistic VDB cloud formations which are animated, gives especially aerial views the small little detail of realism. The vdb simulation is ready for render and can be used easily in your 3D scenes and environments.Thanks to the vdb-format, you can drop one frame or the whole animation of the cloud formation with just few clicks in Blender.The preview video was rendered in cycles but you can also rendering the vdb's in Eevee.

Cloud Formation 1The smaller resolution 400 frames-long cloud formation has a smaller motion field but still large enough to fill a complete scene (X: 303 m, Y: 319 m, Z: 31 m). It can be scaled up and down or can be changed in the density and color with the principled volume shader.

Cloud Formation 2The higher resolution 300 frames-long cloud formation has a larger motion field with larger moving clouds (X: 351 m, Y: 415 m, Z: 63 m). It can be scaled up and down or can be changed in the density and color with the principled volume shader.

BonusThe blender-specific cloud formation is part of the whole pack. It's user-friendly editable by the advanced cloud formation shader. You can animate a lot of transformations in the clouds through this shader.

• 400 VDB files (Cloud formation 1)
